#SANSA SANDISK CHARGER UPGRADE#

SanDisk bundles the Fuze+ with a pair of cheap headphones and a microUSB cable for charging and data transfer вЂ“ and thatвЂ™s all youвЂ™ll need. Opting for dedicated controls rather than a touch screen does leave the Fuze+ with a bigger footprint than the new multi-touch iPod Nano at 2 inches wide and 3.75 tall (you could place two Nanos on top with room to spare), but the plastic case is comparably thin at about a third of an inch deep, and extremely light. On the bottom, the front hooks forward into a subtle chin, just like on the HTC MyTouch 3G. SanDisk seems to have taken inspiration from smartphones with a seamless edge-to-edge look on the front, touch controls rather than hard, clicky ones, and even a slightly ovoid shape and curved back that remind us of the вЂњriverstoneвЂќ design language on PalmвЂ™s Pre. While SanDisk canвЂ™t challenge the build quality or stunning look of AppleвЂ™s anodized aluminum iPad Nano at this price, its industrial designers have managed to coax a little more character out of plastic this year. SanDisk hasnвЂ™t gone revolutionary with the latest iteration of its video-savvy media player, but it hasnвЂ™t sent prices skyward, either, so weвЂ™ll happily take whatever upgrades trickle down to this shockingly reasonable price point ($79.99 for the 4GB model) without complaint. Take the Fuze, blow up the screen, freshen the graphical user interface, swap the scroll wheel for touch buttons, and you have the Fuze+.

While it neglects AppleвЂ™s last-generation upgrade to touch and canвЂ™t compete with Cupertino on industrial design, its larger screen, video playback capability and significantly lower price will win it plenty of fans from those who can overlook the dodgy control scheme. Smaller and cheaper than any smartphone, but still capable of playing pint-sized video, the Fuze+ media player competes for the same one-size-fits-all sweet spot held by the firmly entrenched iPod Nano.
